Now who's being silly?

I realize, you need to believe what he says, not what's actually happening. But just look at the links. Sometimes rich people want to get richer! What a shocker. Clearly that's not something you can wrap your head around.

Following your logic no rich people would be pursuing any business endeavors. Now how stupid is that? Do you think Putin, one of the riches men in the world, doesn't want to get richer?

Is that a new policy position for Democrats? To have a President leave office with LESS wealth than he came in with?

That begs a whole bunch of questions, doesn't it? For example: Will the law only pertain to Republican presidents? If leaving office with less wealth is a worthy goal, then why not require bankruptcy? If a president has to leave office with less wealth, then shouldn't he be barred from becoming wealthier after he leaves office, too? No books, no speaking tours....

What about a president who comes into office with no wealth? Should he be required to leave office in debt? If so, to whom would he owe money?

And why stop at wealth? If Dems require that a president leave office worse off than he came in, why not require that he lose his friends and his family, too? Oh, and his dog. For sure his dog.
